This is probably a silly question but I just cant seem to figure out. I'm completely new to flex and maven.

Maven 2.2.1: Maven 2.2.1 unzipped,M2_HOME set and repository altered to point to different drive location in settings.xml

Flex 4.0: Installed

Created a multi-modular webapp project using flexmojo:

mvn archetype:generate
-DarchetypeRepository=http://repository.sonatype.org/content/groups/flexgroup 
-DarchetypeGroupId=org.sonatype.flexmojos 
-DarchetypeArtifactId=flexmojos-archetypes-modular-webapp 
-DarchetypeVersion=RELEASE

with following options

groupId=com.test
artifactId=test
version=1.0-snapshot
package=com.tests

* Creates *

test
|-- pom.xml
|--swc -pom.xml
|--swf -pom.xml
`--war -pom.xml

Parent pom has swc, swf, war as modules.

Dependency is war->swf->swc.

With parent artifactId of swf, swc, war set to swf, swc, test respectively.

On executing mvn on test folder(for that matter clean or anything) I get this following error.

G:\Projects\test>mvn -e

Looks like its trying to download the project from maven's central repository instead of building it.

What am I missing?
